Edit: I’m dumb. I missed sage in the ingredients. it’s definitely there. And I definitely saw it. Derp. If you like sage like I do you’ll enjoy this tea.
Disappointed but this will not affect the score. 1. When I read Wight I was extremely excited thinking this was a prelude to an interesting description using the Lightbringer Book Series that I am absolutely loving.

Strangely there is a slight flavor of sage, though that could also be the magic of impression. Say a tea tastes like almonds and it’s highly likely you will taste almonds. The lemongrass and rose mix to make a light herbal flavor that is difficult to define but still delightful. Not sure I would call this buttery as the website describes but it could just be a difference in the time since I received it to when this bag was filled. One must also remember that each persons buds are also different so even you may taste something different than I. Lastly, the aroma. It started off like a rose garden had suddenly bloomed in front of me. But within a minute it was gone. Replaced with something strange. Now it’s soft sage with evergreen underbrush.

Advent Calendar Day 20

To me, this tastes like a straight-up sage infusion, which I’m honestly not mad about because I’m not the biggest fan of rose. Not something I’d reach for often, but a nice change of pace today! It’s been really fun to get out of my “box” of the tea companies I know and flavors I gravitate towards and try new things thanks to the Advent swap and TTB!

I love sage, so I was pleased to see this in the Tea Thoughts Halloween countdown. It’s pretty much sage water, which I don’t mind! Not really getting any rose or white tea. Just sage.

From earlier in the week!

I had some fun the other night with tea mixology/tea infused cocktails and from that kind of wave of inspiration I birthed a really tasty tea cocktail using this as the base! I started with a cold brew of this tea, and that ended up being used as the bulk of the drink. Here’s the recipe though:

I started by prepping the glass I was going to be serving in by giving it a vodka rinse, then in a separate glass I prepared the following…

- 1 oz. of brown sugar simple syrup
- 1 1/2 oz. of Grand Marnier
- 4 oz. of Sage Rose cold brew
- Shake with ice, then pour into already prepared glass
- Express with an orange peel

Pretty simple, right!? I mean, it’s definitely not the strongest cocktail in the world/not something you’d drink to get drunk but flavour wise it was really good. Just this great balance of smooth orange, sweet molasses like brown sugar, and then this great undertone/finish of herbaceous sage and floral rose in the finish from the tea base. I think it leans a little to the sweet side ’cause the brown sugar is a pretty strong ingredient but you could either experiment with a smaller amount or possibly try adding in drop or two of saline to see if that helps balance it a little bit more.

Also, as far as the brown sugar simple syrup goes you make it that same way as normal simple syrup but just sub in brown sugar instead of white. Very, very easy to do and really lovely flavour. Plus is adds this gorgeous deep brown hue which has a nice aesthetic factor too.

I need to work on my garnishing skills. Also, I’d love if that wasn’t the only cocktail type glass that I owned, but oh well.
